RE: Offset beam positions

2017-04-07 Thread Joseph N. Srednicki
Kieran and David: Thanks so much for the help! You also answered a question that I forgot to ask, which was how to rest after the \offset so that the changes do not carry forward. Using the \one before the offset or using the tweak version answers that question. Thanks again. Joe Srednicki

I think you can use \column, \center-column, \right-column, or other similar functions, depending on how you want it aligned: \markup \column { "First line" "Second line" } On 04/07/17 21:35, Son_V wrote: I've searched on google but I wasn't able to find an answer. How can I break a lo
